Today, rather than focusing on the nuts and bolts of running, Amy talks with presenter, model, runner and all round delightful person Shareefa J about the need for much better inclusivity and diversity in running. We often talk about smashing notions of 'a real runner' and today Shareefa talks us through how she motivates herself to get out the door when confidence is low and how she shows the world that there is no single type of runner. We discuss her many impressive running endeavours including running in her underwear, and how she dealt with training when the pandemic brought her marathon journey to a halt. A wonderfully bubbly conversation to accompany you on your run this Sunday. 

Topics covered:  Covered body confidence Inclusion in running  Finding motivation when the goal posts are moved  Reframing the narrative to boost your confidence
